In what could serve as the lineage between dinosaurs and ichthyosaurs, scientists have uncovered a fossil record which is about 248 million years old in China that suggests a link between the two animals.

The discovery, named as Cartorhynchus lenticarpus, was made by the researchers at the University of California in 2011.
